The good news: public Wi-Fi is becoming more common. Once almost impossible to come by, it’s now (often freely) available in restaurants, malls, gyms, shops, airports, on campus and even on some flights. The bad news: connecting to public Wi-Fi could put your device at risk. But with a bit of caution on your part, you can lower your chances of getting compromised.
